About the event
“Voices from the Wall”, our interactive exhibition exploring the history of the Dacians on Hadrian’s Wall in parallel with the lives of Romanians living in England today will arrive soon in Manchester!
Please join us for the opening event, to take place on 8 May, 6.30pm at the Romanian Consulate. There will be a short talk by writer and historian Bronwen Riley, who is the curator of the exhibition. She will be joined by Cristina Crizbasan, a Roman pottery specialist at Vindolanda. We will also have a display of exquisitely decorated Romanian Easter eggs.
The Dacians, the ancestors of the Romanians, came to Britain nearly two thousand years ago to help build and defend Hadrian’s Wall. We are thrilled to partner with Bronwen Riley and Arts Council England, to offer this itinerant exhibition, which is travelling from the North to the South of England this spring.
